Cruising the majestic waters of the Pacific Northwest, “Indiscretion” has been the backdrop for countless memories shared with friends and family - her comfortable salon, efficient galley, and finely appointed staterooms offering the perfect balance of function and charm.

Walkthrough
Boarding the Nordhavn 43 is a welcoming experience. From the swim platform, wide transom steps lead to the aft cockpit, a sheltered and versatile outdoor space ideal for lounging, line handling, or dining al fresco. High bulwarks and sturdy stainless-steel rails provide security, while the full overhang offers shade and weather protection. From here, side decks allow safe movement forward, and a ladder leads up to the boat deck and flybridge.
Stepping inside through the wide salon door, you enter a bright and inviting living area finished in classic satin-teak joinery. Large windows bring in natural light, while comfortable seating, a hi-lo table, and entertainment systems make this the perfect place to gather. The open layout flows forward to the galley, thoughtfully designed for extended cruising with abundant counter space, dual refrigerators/freezers, propane cooktop and oven, microwave, and deep stainless sink. Practical storage throughout ensures everything has its place for life underway.
A few steps up, the pilothouse delivers commanding visibility and the feel of a true passagemaker. A centrally positioned helm seat faces a well-laid-out console with full navigation electronics, engine controls, and communication systems. A large L-shaped settee and table just aft provide a comfortable perch for crew on watch or for casual meals. Dutch doors port and starboard allow quick deck access and excellent ventilation.
The accommodations below are designed with comfort in mind. The full-beam owner’s stateroom, located amidships for minimal motion at sea, features a walk-around berth, generous drawer and hanging storage, and a private en-suite head with shower. Forward, the guest stateroom offers a double berth with additional storage, ideal for family or friends. A second head with shower is conveniently accessible for guests and day use.
On deck, the foredeck provides secure ground tackle handling with heavy-duty windlass, robust cleats, and ground tackle lockers, while wide walkways and tall rails ensure safety underway. The flybridge and boat deck above offer commanding views, secondary helm controls, tender storage with davit, and plenty of space for deck chairs or lounging at anchor.
Altogether, the Nordhavn 43 layout reflects the builder’s commitment to seaworthiness, comfort, and liveaboard practicality. Every space is engineered for extended cruising, whether crossing oceans or enjoying quiet weekends in protected waters.
